you have to perform a retrofit, not just replace the R12 with R134. Clean the system of the old oil, R134 receiver/dryer, different orifice, pull a vacuum on it, then introduce R134. It will not be exactly the same, but it will be reasonable. Hot + humid does put a greater load on the system. If it needs to be serviced, read the Townsend doc on it first to get an idea of what needs to be done. If you do all the mech work yourself and have a service center pull the vacuum and charge it, you should get by reasonably cheaply and have a functional system.
